How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It exists as a straight-line spectacle and boulevard showpiece, built to deliver drag-strip acceleration and thunderous V8 presence rather than nimble handling.
- Built for
- It has the character of a hot-rod on two wheels, brash and unapologetic, trading cornering finesse for raw automotive-grade power and unmistakable visual and auditory drama.
- Not ideal for
- It is not for riders seeking agile canyon carving, off-road capability, or a light, easy-to-manage first motorcycle.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
